A Message from Our Principal
Education at Pope John Paul II Regional Catholic Elementary School promotes the spiritual, academic, social, emotional and physical development of its students. The faculty and staff members of the school are dedicated individuals who profess a deep commitment to Catholic Education and the development of each child according to his/her God-given talents. In all daily tasks we strive to provide opportunities which will assist the student to possess solid Christian values as well as a strong moral and character formation. We recognize the need to prepare the students for the challenges of the Twenty-First Century and so we will provide an atmosphere which will encourage them to become life-long learners and to strive to work cooperatively in a multicultural, ever-changing society.
Ultimately, each student will gain from school according to the effort he/she applies. To increase the degree of educational success, it is important that teachers, parents and administrators communicate openly and frequently concerning the progress of students. We stress the necessity to approach the learning needs of students in a TEAM fashion. Parents, as the first teachers of their children, must make a commitment to become active participants in the learning process of their children. Invest totally in your children by your support of the school, your words of encouragement, and your presence at school.
It is true that you cannot hide the school pride! The spirit of the school reflects the positive and nurturing atmosphere experienced in the halls of the school, athletic fields and courts and the social gatherings throughout the year. You are a member of a great TEAM. As a Home and School Member you share in the awesome enterprise of shaping our future through our children. With your support and cooperation we will not only touch the future but we will make it brighter as we serve the needs of God's youngest members.
God Bless,
Sister Anne McGuire, IHM
